@Olliefant: Thank you for the review, all comments should be addressed now Crystal Drawers 🍌 ^{(wanna talk?)} 16:01, 9 January 2026 (UTC)

Didn't find any errors in spotchecks so I'll pass this Olliefant (she/her) 16:33, 9 January 2026 (UTC)

I'll do this

Lead

• I think "The series acts as a precursor to the Ted film franchise, showcasing the childhood lives of John and Ted" should go in the first paragraph,  Done
• Lead may be a little two long in comparison to the article, I'd trim it a bit but its up to you  Done (trimmed down some info, I can remove more if needed)
• The caption describes Dennis as "anthropomorphic toy fire truck" yet the image it just looks like a regular fire truck, is there a better image for this>
• Also that image may not be the best to represent the episode, given the reviews emphaise the queer themes, maybe a still of the kiss scene would be better?  Done

I have removed it for an image of Blaire and Sarah kissing. Since I just uploaded it, it might take a day or two before the image shows up in exchange for the old one

• McFarlane is linked twice in the lead  Done (removed one)
• The episode is descrbied in the lead as a Christmas Special yet the episode was released alongside the rest of the series in January. Unless the "Christmas Special" term can be sourced then the term should be removed  Done

I was able to source this in Production

• "In this Christmas special, the" -> "In "Loud Night", the" to provide a better distinction from the series and episode summaries  Done
• The Ted Jesus plot seems like a relatively minor thing in the plot summary where as the Dennis thing is not mentioned in the lead.  Done

Plot

• There may be some overlinking here but I'd leave any cuts up to you  Done

I removed some, but kept ones that I felt would benefit from a corresponding article

Production

• Needs info on who directed and wrote the episode  Done
• Write "Pasadena, California" instead of "Pasadena"  Done
• Kinda lacking in info, is there anything else? Maybe which cast members the episode centered around  Not done

I sadly couldn’t find much information other than what is given, no reviews really clarify which characters are vital to the episode in an explicit way that I could use in the article.

• Who played Dennis?  Done

The only source I could find is from ScreenRant. I know the site isn’t the most relatable, but I’ve seen other GAs use it; I can remove it if you would prefer the article without a ScreenRant source. What is odd is that the AV Club review suggests that MacFarlane is the actor, and the ScreenRant review theorizes that the name is a pseudonym. I have added information on this to the section.

Release and reception

• "along with the rest of the season" -> "along with the rest of the first season"  Done

Good catch! I wrote this article back when there was only one confirmed season so things like this just kind of slipped my mind lol

References

• Why is Cracked.com used? The RSP says its unreliable (WP:CRACKED)  Done

I thought it might be okay to use, since it’s a direct interview from the actress herself, but I have removed it.

• The episode is breifly mentioned in this AV Club review , Its mostly in reference to the series overall but it may contain some relevant details  Done

Thank you!
